Multiple Royal Guards surrounded a portal that was one of the most strategic locations aside from the Royal Palace. Although it was a very rare occurrence, its most important role was to sneak reinforcements into the Capital in case it was attacked.
"Gosh, why were we ordered to guard this portal? Nothing is happening for a long time and it's boring. Is some important person coming? No one told us anything," one of the younger guards complained annoyed, sitting down on the edge of the portal.
"You are a guard so your role is to guard. You don't need to know the details," the older guard explained before chiding him, "Now stand up and shut up. Someone will arrive any minute. We need to protect the site in case anyone attacks the station."
Sorry guys, there was quite a mess in my house with construction work so I had to help a bit. Couldn't write much the past two days.
